Had to pick up some lumber today to start on the house because they pushed my delivery back until Tuesday. Alittle chilly this morning and now is raining so getting off to a slow start lol. But did get the top plate on and got the basement laid out...







Spectators gotta love them...

 

that house urs? and i drove a newer 150 the other day.. it was a bad idea haha.. looks like she can take a hell of a lot more wood before she squats lol

 

Nah its my parents, they said if I build them a house I can stay a few years longer

Ya I think they ride/drive x100 times better with about 4,000lbs behind them, but Ive had close to 15,000lbs behind it before also lol

 

that looks like that foundation is made of that foam block lego like forms? that then becomes insulation? that stuff is pretty sweet.

 

$10 bucks says that someone will put that as/part of their sig.

 

Yes there just foam concrete forms, alittle more expense but you don't have to frame out or insulate the basement then, the dry wall just hangs right on that then. Most of the houses around here use it now....

 

i think you meant to say "thats what he said"

 

Heck yes! So much easier!

If you need help through the finish stage, let me know. I might need some work, lol. Plus, it would be fun as hell!

I'd help with framing, but I don't like framing, lol.

 

lookin good, both the truck and the house

 

gotta love icfs!! (insulating concrete forms!!)

 

I like framing, finish work takes way to long. I hope to be setting rafters next weekend, but its suppose to rain Sunda/Monday, I don't have power either yet cause the electric company dropped the ball with the trenching company to get the lines run in the neighborhood should be Monday/Tuesday. But my floor trusses are coming Monday sometime, cause there coming out of South Dakota and the rafters come Friday now so we will see. Have a long week ahead of me thats forsure. I hope to get my cousins old dry wall crew to come up out of Denver, because they've been calling bagging for work lol.

 

You suck... well not really, but all yous guys with full size trucks have got me wanting one, but I want a house more so the truck will wait.
